Any idea where is Uday Odedra joining??
Hi ,I have been interviewed and selected in S&P Global .salary almost negotiated and waiting for the offer letter to release. But seems like they are not willing to release the offer because of my 90 np . They are asking to join by 60 days but initially I told them my NP is 90. Even I am ready to take the 60 days offer but now they are not releasing offer as they want assurance.Now they are not picking calls.seems like i will loose the offer. Is there anything can be done.

Bain & Company I received an offer to join Bain & Company for SF office but due to family reasons, I will have to stay in the South Bay. Given Bain’s local staffing model, it will be challenging for me to commute to SF and back. Is it possible to be transferred to the palo alto office/is that office fully functioning or does it mainly serve as a hub for partners and research?

I think more drivers in your buckets for the structure - so you may say Cost > Fixed Costs > what are the fixed costs here.
It could also mean going to that deeper level of insight on exhibits to find the not so obvious points.
Great! Thank you
It’s what PWC1 said. Make sure you address it.
They will not give you an offer if you don’t add that 3rd level insight.
I.e. this is how I’d go about and how I told the people I’ve coached to go about it. say an acquisition case
Company -> capabilities -> intellectual -> managerial knowledge -> “it’s important to understand whether it’s the first time the client is acquiring another company and whether the client has any knowledge in that industry” -> “Integration is very important, and this will help us understand potential risks or additional costs - like hiring a 3rd party”
If you only have two levels your third level can also be an explanation. Like:
Environmental -> politico-legal -> “should verify compliance to any regulation specific to this industry and look at any outstanding legal cases to evaluate potential risks”.
Sounds good! Thank you
What are level 3 insights? I know of second level insights but 3?
Coach
If you’re unclear about your feedback you should always ask the recruiter to explain more. They want you to succeed so it’s not a bad thing to ask for more info
It means you had level 4 insights that were not sufficiently supported by enough level 3s. If you add more level 3s then you can support your level 4s and even potentially add level 5s. That’s when McK knows you’ve earned yourself a spot at the Firm
